Hi there. I'm not pregnant yet but will be ttc in the summer after a big hol and other things that are planned. My dp has said ge would like to share the leave. So if I did six months, then he would do the other six months. I feel really happy that he wants to share in this. We both work for the nhs and in the same department so this is doable. What I would like to know is has anyone else done this and what was your experience of it? How did you work it out? Who did which half? Did you resent giving up the rest of your time with your baby or were you happy to go back to work please? I just wondered what it's like in real life rather than just talking about it. Hope I'm okay to post in this part not being pregnant. Also I don't know how significant this is but we are on them same wage pretty much.
